Steve Bruce's Baggies will want to bounce back from Sunday's frustrating defeat at Blackburn Rovers by claiming their first league win of the new term against Cardiff City on Wednesday night (ko 8pm).
The setback at Ewood Park left Albion on two points from their opening three matches, despite creating enough chances in each encounter to take maximum points.
Wednesday's opponents Cardiff City will be pleased with their start to the season having collected two victories and six points from their three games.
They recorded a narrow 1-0 win over Birmingham City at the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday lunchtime and sit towards the top end of the table ahead of their visit to the Midlands.

Our opponents
Cardiff City have had a major overhaul in the summer following a disappointing 18th-placed finish in the 2021/22 campaign - their lowest league finish since 2002/03.
The Bluebirds have already welcomed 15 new faces to the Cardiff City Stadium, including Albion defender Cedric Kipre on loan and former Baggies Romaine Sawyers and Ryan Allsop on permanent deals.
They've made a decent start to the season, securing six points from their first three games. The South Wales outfit boast two 1-0 home victories over Norwich City on the opening day and then Birmingham City last weekend, however they did lose their one and only away fixture so far this term, suffering a 2-1 defeat at Reading.
Boss Steve Morrison took over from Mick McCarthy at the end of October in 2021 and has since won 15 of his 38 games in charge.
Morrison, a former Wales international forward, played for a host of clubs during an 18-year playing career, including Northampton Town, Stevenage, Millwall, Norwich City and Leeds United among others.
